The Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB) Strategic Plan Community Consultation Survey aims to consult students, parents, families, caregivers and community members on the WRDSB Multi-Year Strategic Plan, which has been in place since 2022.

We are gathering information on how we can continue to improve our efforts to support the educational needs of students in the WRDSB. Through this survey we are seeking feedback on the current WRDSB Multi-Year Strategic Plan, which has been in place since 2022. The information provided through the survey will provide direction for the WRDSB as we continue to strive for improved student achievement and well-being.

The survey will be available November 5 to December 12, 2025 and is open to WRDSB students, staff, parents, families, caregivers and community members. We welcome feedback from all members of our community and we are eager to hear from a wide range of perspectives.

Prior to responding to this survey, we encourage you to view our current Strategic Plan on the WRDSB website.

Survey Questions

The survey asks for input on the content of the WRDSB Strategic Plan, including the six Strategic Directions and the Learner Profile. It also includes an opportunity for feedback on preferences related to WRDSB communications.

The survey will also ask questions about individual characteristics to determine an overall profile of respondents who completed the survey. For example, the survey includes general identification information, such as whether the respondent is a student, staff member, family member or community member or other.

General respondent profile questions include:

  • General identification as a student, staff member, parent, caregiver, family or community member
  • Areas or location within WRDSB
  • Demographic information

There will also be an opportunity to add comments or questions at the end of the survey.
